They specialize in digital marketing, providing all the tools you need to catapult your business to greater heights and grow your sales and online presence. This includes website design, reputation management, graphic design, social media management, and SEO. Nfluence definitely is intent on helping businesses find success, but what are their keys to success?
I talked to Rene Faulcon, principal of Nfluence Group and he shared some wonderful tips for success - Success the Nfluence Way. I will share a few points today and refer to other fascinating tidbits in future posts.
Rene's "tips for success revolve around continuous learning, being observant, adaptable and decisive " Let's focus on that first key - continuous learning! What does that entail and how can it lead to success?
Rene mentions that "this means that you are willing to read, watch videos, and take in a webinar, analyze your mistakes. Make sure what you are learning has a direct correlation to your stated goals and objectives. Don't waste your time ingesting every webinar, video, content forever. You will have an idea when you are done, when the messages begin to repeat, you can visualize the action steps on your own and you are able to internalize and differentiate between the best known execution strategies you are studying"
Excellent advice! There is no doubt that one of the most important things you can do to achieve success in your chosen endeavor is consistent and purposeful professional development and self-enrichment. Continuous learning and education is a hallmark of those who are successful. We will examine other elements to what makes Nfluence successful in future posts.

Success The Right Way

June 20th!!! The official first day of summer. So you hoped to be in shape by summer but alas, you haven't reached your goal and you feel getting that swimsuit body is beyond your reach. The fact is, it is NOT too late to achieve notable and noticeable health and fitness goals for the summer. It all starts with nutrition and summer is the perfect opportunity to start on that whole food plant based journey. Why is that so? Though many equate summer with grilling, BBQ, picnics and vacations that can lend themselves to excess calories and poor choices, the reality is that a lot of people actually eat less just because of the hot weather. But besides that things like fresh fruit (i.e berries, watermelon, grapes, mangoes) and salads of all sorts are preferable because they are refreshing and light. Even grilling can be healthy and fun as asparagus, portobello mushrooms, onions, pineapples are popular healthy alternatives that can help you shed pounds. And if you skip the sodas, juices, and yes even the beer and focus on good ole water you will see some definite changes in your body composition sooner than you think!!! Yes, summer can still be fun and you can head to the beach with confidence! Why not start TODAY? Give yourself 2 weeks and see how you feel. Better yet, do a 21 day or 30 day challenge. The results will motivate you to keep going and you will still have over half the summer left to enjoy your new found energy and zest for life! PREAM Nutrition is here to help you!

Hello to all! It has been awhile since I posted to my blog but this post is special to me and I hope others will be inspired by it. Today, May 18th, 2024 marks the 5th anniversary since I started on my plant-based journey. Yes, that means FIVE YEARS of no meat, no dairy, no eggs and 5 years of none of my wife's red beans and rice and classic spaghetti, my mom's gumbo and sweet potato pie, and other staples of the first 49 years of my life. It also meant no fried chicken strips from Ezell's, no Jones's BBQ, no teriyaki, no burgers from Dick's. You get it! I mention all of this to just highlight that it has not been easy and there are times I may crave fried chicken, a nice steak, or a juicy burger. But I resolved in my heart to to forge ahead on this path because it literally SAVED MY LIFE! So yes, May 18th is a special day for me. There have been struggles and setbacks but I am proud to say I have never touched meat, dairy, or eggs from day one. In the process of exploring the world of veganism and particularly, whole food plant based eating, I have learned so much about myself and the lifestyle. I have lost 85 lbs but it has come with many challenges. Over the last two months I did a 60-day personal challenge as I looked forward to my anniversary. Over the next few weeks I will share details of what that entailed as well as other things I have gleaned over the last 5 years. Stay tuned!
